Patient's question:
Recently, due to some discomfort in my body, I felt uneasy and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was kidney stones. I would like to ask if having kidney stones can interfere with sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Common symptoms include severe abdominal and waist pain, nausea, dry vomiting, restlessness, abdominal pain, hematuria, etc. If the urinary tract infection is split, symptoms such as chills and fever may also arise. Most patients with kidney stones have no symptoms unless the kidney stone falls from the kidney to the ureter, causing urinary tract obstruction. Acute kidney pain often makes the patient unbearable. The symptoms of kidney stones determine the size, shape, location of the stones, and whether there are complications such as infection or overflow. Having kidney stones does not interfere with sexual function. Kidney stones are mainly caused by the deposition of crystal substances such as calcium oxalate in the kidneys.
